Help for Parkinson’s patients

Hospital Research Foundation nurses are headed to region

Our dedicated Parkinson’s nurse specialists are available to support clients with advice, education and information on lifestyle modifications, medication management and other interventions that will help you live well with Parkinson’s.

During their initial visit, our nurses will conduct a meticulous and holistic assessment, serving as the foundation for ongoing personalised care.

Together with you, they will develop an individualised care plan that aligns with your specific needs and aspirations, ensuring that you receive the best possible support on your journey.

Collaborating closely with a multi-disciplinary team of experts and in partnership with neurologists, geriatricians, and GPs, our nurses work in synergy to grant you early access to health services, thereby enhancing your overall quality of life.

Common symptoms experienced in Parkinson’s, such as tremors, rigidity, slowness of movement, speech and swallowing difficulties, falls, mobility challenges, sleep issues, pain management, mood, and continence concerns and medication management can all be effectively addressed with the support of your dedicated Parkinson’s nurse.

Throughout the year 2023, our Parkinson’s Nurse Specialists will be visiting key regional areas in South Australia. We have organised a range of sessions to provide valuable support, insights and education towards helping you live optimally with Parkinson’s.

We are delighted to inform you that there are no costs involved in accessing our nursing services. To register for attendance or to learn more about the support we offer, please don’t hesitate to contact us at 0491 235 284 or via email at kmack@hospitalresearch. org.au.
